Formal Dress Fabric Trends: Mesh

Brisbane designers When Freddie met Lilly believe in the combination of the power of the lasting beauty of women with their modern, sexy sassiness to create inspiring gowns with mesh that put an edgy spin on the typical formal, evening wear.

We are experts in fusing traditional floor length skirts with contemporary, straight off the runway features like mesh bodices, belts, ruffles, broaches, etc. In our new Cocomo collection, we make sure that young ladies have a piece of modern fashion in their collection for an experimental look to their outfits to appeal to their designer tastes. The gorgeous gowns of this collection are made with sensuous fabrics like lace, chiffon and silk and accentuated strategically with mesh to accentuate a woman’s natural grace and make it seem like the dress is flowing with her.

An Edgy Formal Gown with Mesh for all ocassions

Fashion is currently in a state of punk revival, and we at Freddie met Lilly love formal dress styles that look specially dramatic and gorgeous as well as the romantic softness of our bridal gowns. Our current bestseller, designed in Brisbane, the Briony gown features an innovative mesh neck and back design that makes sure you will be the cynosure of all eyes at any occasion, along with a sultry lace skirt in a flirtatious silhouette to add that special something to your overall look.

Evening Wear in Black to make a Bold Statement

Brisbane designers When Freddie met Lilly have embraced the trend of Black is Back. Black is a chic choice that suits every woman-from pale skinned to tanned and toned and comes in some stunning trends to take the glamour quotient of any ocassion a notch higher. The Britta gown offers an edgier take on the traditional gowns with long mesh sleeves and a black fitted skirt with a mesh top that has embroidered overlays to appeal to your overtly feminine side.

Colour options are a signature move

However, if you are a traditionalist, all these gowns can be customized to a non-black colour of your choice. You can opt for a non-white, non-black full lace evening gown like the Cocomo gown offered by When Freddie met Lilly. Or maybe you prefer the creamy, shimmery wonder that combines daring with elegance like the Georgina gown with a soft, French lace skirt. Whatever your choice, our designer ranges have something suit every body type and merge the traditional look with an unexpected little detail using the current “in” material i.e. mesh to set a bolder tone for the collection.

Ladies, get ready to rock your look with seriously intricate and fabulous details like mesh bodices on gowns by Brisbane designers When Freddie met Lilly. The evening wear has been designed not only to help you to stand out amidst the entire party, but also with the ultimate re-wearability in mind.

The beyond gorgeous Bessie gown in elegant red is a striking option for any formal or special occasion. Made entirely of Lycra, it merges edge and elegance beautifully through its structured built in mesh bodice and bold silhouette.
